Patients Beyond Tired: Is Your Ulcerative Colitis Causes Fatigue

Ulcerative Colitis Causes

Before Abby Bales had surgery for ulcerative colitis, she couldn’t make it through the day without a nap. But Bales was more than just tired — she was experiencing fatigue, a common symptom of Ulcerative Colitis Causes (U.C) that drains energy and causes an overwhelming sense of exhaustion.

What Ulcerative Colitis Causes?While people with ulcerative colitis may experience fatigue for a number of reasons, it may simply be caused by the body’s response to inflammation in the colon, says Katkov.

In addition, fatigue is sometimes related to anemia, which is a common complication of ulcerative colitis, caused by blood loss, diarrhea, and malabsorption of nutrients. Other possible triggers include certain medications, inadequate sleep, being overweight or underweight, and pain, according to the findings of the Crohn’s and Colitis UK study.
